Audience-Informed Identity Portfolio and Personal Music Presentation
Each student creates a structured audience-research artifact and prototype, then assembles a portable portfolio containing a two-page identity storybook, self-portrait cards, photos, drawings, labeled artifacts, captions, reflection prompts, and an audio recording of original music. A short designer statement traces how respectful audience feedback shaped revisions and explains the portfolio’s visual and musical intent.
Aloha Identity Gallery Walk Experience and Exhibition
Teams synthesize individual audience research into a shared needs statement and design brief, then prototype, test, and refine a gallery layout that displays portfolios, cards, storybooks, music, and visitor-response stations. At the exhibition, team members explain their evidence-based design decisions, welcome classmates, families, and kūpuna, and collect kind notes for reflection.
